I don’t know; for awhile, I thought you got salmonella from salmon too.

Then again, I’ve been vegetarian since I was in first grade, so I knew enough to know it was in the foods I didn’t eat and I didn’t really care about the specifics. Chicken, salmon – either way, it’s not something I eat.

Salmonella: infects people via unclean food, crap from infected people and thawed fowl. Salmonella didn’t get it’s name from salmon, it got it’s name from the guy that found it, Daniel Elmer Salmon. Damn I pity the guy for having a name like that.

Just because he did a monumentously stupid thing doesn’t mean his spelling and grammar won’t be that great. Many guys I knew in my first year or school were articulate and spelled fine, but they’d do dumb shit like this all the time. They wouldn’t go so far as to put their lives and bowells in danger, but they’d to crazy shit. This seems a BIT fake, but not because of the spelling and grammar.

Uh, “meh”, psst–you can get salmonella from things other than meat. It COMES from animal products, but can get into other foods as well, hence the salmonella/peanut butter outbreak of 2008 or whenever it was. (Stop making us veggie folk look bad .)

ya… you can get salmonella from raw eggs as well. so even if you don’t eat meat… you prolly should know about the food you actually are ingesting…

It’s not a given that you get sick from eating raw chicken. You’re probably more likely to get in a car accident. Cleaning products and advertising have people freaking out about dirt and absurd notions of cleanliness so you buy their products.

People look at raw chicken like it’s some sort of biological weapon, this is beyond absurd.
